AI is OK for marketing. It can spit out an article on a recent case OK. But it's obviously generic and doesn't provide any insight.

You are way oversimplifying what AI can do and the process by which it is used. Large law firms are leveraging this technology today and not for marketing.
Obviously generic and doesn’t provide insight? Curious what your exposure to AI is. Chatgpt on the internet or have you seen what dynamic AI and agents can do?
People want to oversimplify and assume AI means no human involvement when in fact it is a massive tool for efficiency. Contract and tax law are two of the most obvious applications where it is being used today and the models get more advanced by the month.
Someone earlier on here said that the only way a lawyer can make money is through charging their time, which prompted this discussion in the first place. The billable task in a large law firm that can be expedited through AI are abundant. Doesn’t mean all lawyers, or knowledge workers for that matter, get replaced by AI agents.
